Private Beach Retreat close to Newport
Perfect place for getting a taste of the neighborhood and Newport area. Nice space, good host, and friendly community

Studio B, downtown studio apartment with parking
We loved our stay! It’s perfect distance to walk to dinner downtown. Off street parking was a huge plus. Brennan gave us a great recommendation upon our arrival! Love the touch of having snacks and drinks in the fridge. Overall perfect place to stay at in Newport!

Wickford Waterfront 12 min to Newport & 15 min URI
Elaine has a lovely apartment. Very pristine and quiet with amazing views. Our stay was extremely comfortable. Her instructions were perfect and we had no problem with whatsoever anything. If you’re ever there do not miss the morning sunrise. Outstanding. Thank you Elaine & Rich for a lovely stay. We hope to come back some day.

Modern beach studio 7 min walk from the beach
Wonderful stay! Perfect location for our travel needs and close to the downtown area but far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle. The space was incredibly clean and was just enough for what we needed. Alice and Jesse were responsive and helpful! Would definitely stay again.

Spacious Suite in Newport Victorian
We had a great stay in Newport at this beautiful Victorian. The place was super clean and had everything we needed. The owner did an amazing job making it feel comfortable and welcoming. We really appreciated the breakfast options too which was a nice touch. It’s in a perfect location only about a 10 minute walk from the Viking Hotel and close to everything we wanted to check out. I’d definitely stay here again.

Main Street on the Park
Beautiful and well-maintained place. We had a minor issue, but Jonas was very proactive in resolving it. Felt right at home.

The Crows Nest - 1747 Isaac Pierce House 2nd Floor
The apartment is very comfortable. The pictures are accurate. Beds comfortable. Plenty of very nice bath linens. I loved the types and amount of lighting in every room. Wonderful water pressure in the shower. The kitchen is very functional . I loved cooking on the beautiful big stove. We really appreciated having both a Keurig and a coffee maker. The one thing I would caution about is the stairs. They are as pictured. We had no problem with them, but people with knee issues might. I will certainly look for this property again when in the area.

Home by the Sea
This was our second stay and there's a reason we came back! The space is cozy and comfortable - We especially appreciated the easy flexible check in and snacky snacks and coffee. Thank you Norm!
House rentals with beach access

Beach rental home
We have stayed at Peter’s home twice now, both times were a great experience. Easy check in, the space was clean, got back to us super fast with any questions we had, and the house really has everything you need! We would highly recommend this home, and will book again in the future!

Lil B's by the Bay!
A lovely, completely updated, immaculately clean home! Mark and Mattie are wonderful to work with and even arranged for good weather for our son's wedding!

Modern Home w/ Pool & Game Room | Mins to Newport
The house was wonderful and in a great location. Communication was clear with the hosts. Only feedback we would give was having more items in the kitchen like sheet pans, Tupperware, something to wipe the counters down, etc.

Sweet Spot: hot tub, bike path, town & beaches!
Very nice stay for our family! We were very comfortable here. The backyard is its own little oasis and the hot tub was so nice! Great hosts with little touches throughout the house - snacks and drinks on arrival, tissue boxes on each end table, plenty of towels, local recommendations, and more. Cute and quiet town with some great local things to do. Very happy with our stay

Downtown Bristol Seaside Cottage
Very comfy and clean home in lovely Bristol. House was super clean, with a well stocked kitchen, comfy beds and bedding, plenty of closet space and towels. We appreciated the gas fireplace in the living room as it was cold and rainy when we arrived. Very cozy!

Stunning Waterfront Cottage with Big Yard & Dock!
It was a very relaxing home surrounded by beautiful waterfront wildlife( a pair of swans and other birds ) and views. It was well worth the stay and I would like to stay there again and I would recommend it to family and friends in the future.

Bristol Harbor Waterfront in Historic Downtown.
Our family of four had an amazing week staying in Marianne and Tom's downtown rental. They took great care in this building's renovation and historical preservation, and every detail of it shows. The space was comfortable--plenty of room for each of us to spread out but also get some great family time together. The location is spectacular, looking out on Bristol harbor. We spent a great deal of time on the second-floor deck, watching all of the harbor goings-on, from boats coming in and out to countless walkers with their dogs. We loved the energy of this part of Bristol, which had some beautiful quiet time in the morning and had lots of festive spirit at night. We walked so easily to shops and restaurants, and we also rode our bikes to Colt State Park several times. We could not have asked for anything more from our vacation. Marianne and Tom were welcoming, responsive, and super-knowledgeable about the area. 1000% recommend!

Waterfront Secluded Home with Dock
We had the best time the house is always amazing. We’ve stayed there before the yard is wonderful to play games with all your family. We just had the best best time anybody that rented this house would love it and have a great time as well. thank you, Jean Marie so much for sharing your fabulous home.
Condo rentals with beach access

Tennis Hall of Fame 1-bedroom condo.
Nice little spot with plenty of options to pull up a seat outside. Centrally located and walkable. Would recommend!

Anchors Aweigh Newport
Clean clean sparkling clean! This Airbnb is in the perfect location to walk to all the shops, restaurants, and anything you want to do in downtown Newport! The beds were super cozy and the unit came with all the amenities you need for a trip, even beach towels and tissues in every room! The hosts were very friendly and accommodating and checking in/out was a piece of cake. Will def be staying here again next time we are in Newport!

The Sanctuary: Walk to Wheeler Beach Condo
Patti’s place is perfect for a family who wants to be close to the beach! The apartment also has lovely porch that overlooks a water outlet. Very clean and just as described. The kitchen is decently stocked with dish ware, cookware, utensils, coffee machine, toaster oven, etc. If you plan to cook large meals, recommend bringing some larger pots/pans/Tupperware. We had an issue with the fire alarm which was handled within 5 minutes by the host’s brother who lives next door - so impressive how fast they got it fixed! Partner and I both worked from the apartment for one day and didn’t have any issues with the wifi. Great spot!

1-BR Condo in Downtown Newport! Steps to Thames St
Very clean, cute and cozy apartment. I had a few general questions and Troy was quick to respond and very friendly. Perfect trip and great stay located walking distance from all the restaurants and shopping. Thank you!!

~"Old Barbershop" Thames Condo+Parking!
We rented Kathi's place for our girls trip to Newport! It was plenty big and spacious to comfortably accommodate our group of 5. The best part is the prime location! Couldn't have asked for a better one - the Bodhi spa is right across the street, good restaurants that we could just walk to, plenty of shopping on the street. Kathi was always very responsive and even gave us early check-in, which we truly appreciated. Having free parking is a bonus on Thames St, you know if you have ever been to Newport! Overall we all had a fabulous time. Thanks Kathi.

Beach Escape. Walk to Beautiful Beaches
We love staying here. This was our 3rd or 4th year in a row that we stayed here. It is a great location so close to the beach and the inlet. The unit is always neat and clean and Courtney and Chris are great hosts.

The Rhode Lauren • 3 Bed - Brown Uni • RISD
This apartment was fantastic. All new, very comfortable, and super clean. Perfect spot for my weekend visit to Brown/RISD with family. Great location on Benefit St, right next to the new Brown Bee Coffee shop, which is excellent. Firas was a super responsive and friendly host. I hope to stay there again on a future visit.

Stone's Throw from the Ocean 2 BR 1 Bath Upstairs
Perfect home to accommodate our family of 4 on a mini beach getaway. Would absolutely stay again!
